Abstract
< 0.05). Moreover, the PICRUSt pathway analysis revealed that FTE upregulated genes enriched in pathways of the carbohydrate metabolism, signaling molecules and immune system. As a rising star of post-fermented teas with the low cost, high accessibility and confirmed health benefits, our findings indicate the beneficial impacts of Fu brick tea on the promotion of adipose browning and thermogenesis in association with gut microbiota reconstructions, paving the way to restrict obesity and its associated metabolic diseases.
